Greetings
valued Dan's Movie Report readers. The Assassin's Apprentice has
begun principal photography on the second short film in the series
entitled 'The Assassins Apprentice: The Silbadores of La Gomera'.
Veteran actress Tracee Lee Cocco has been cast as Gwen in the
production. She chats about her experience on Star Trek and how she
became involved in The Assassin's Apprentice. Sit back, relax, and
enjoy the text ride with Tracee.
DMR:
Deep Space Nine was my favorite of all the series as it was
intellectual and culturally diverse, curious if you have a favorite
moment on the show? I also just wanted to say I so much loved your
work and everyone's on that show.
TLC:
Probably my favorite moment on Deep Space Nine was when I played a
Ferengi and I was in the bar scene with Quark. Yeah. And there
was also, I was in a video game I believe where I was a bar-back
also, in Deep Space Nine. But I’m not quite sure, it was either
that or Voyager but, yeah, Ferengis were fun.
DMR:
I am curious, as well if you still maintain strong friendships with
anyone in particular to this day. Even beyond the Trek Conventions?
TLC:
Probably have to say Marina (Sirtis). Yes, her and I exchanged
numbers, we text each other every now and then. But, when I do see
the other cast members at conventions, oh my gosh, they drop
everything and come over and hug me. It’s great. But yeah, Gates
McFadden too, her and I, yeah. They’re very cool to me when I see
them.
DMR:
Finally, what attracted you to TAA2 and how did you come to be
involved.
TLC:
Well, I came to be involved through Paul Hickman. That’s how I met
Russ (Emanuel) and I know Ryan (T. Husk). What attracted me was, I
saw the first one and it was awesome. They’re all a bunch of great
people and it’s a great production. And I’m honored that they
gave me the opportunity to play Gwen, who’s an assassin herself but
she’s retired. Maybe she can, I don’t know, come back later,
hint, hint! Anyway, it’s a great production, the people are great,
the cast and crew are all awesome, they made me feel great. I’m
pretty sure this one’s going to kick butt too, so, I can’t wait
to see it.
